Get more notes at https://podcastnotes.org Product and Media are the Leverage of the New Wealth (Listen) | Episode 21* The most important form of leverage is the idea of products which have no marginal cost of replication (aka product leverage)* You can replicate your efforts without having to involve other humans* Ex. – A podcast* Long ago, to get similar reach, you would have had to give a public lecture* 30-40 years ago – you would have had to get on TV* But today, thanks to the internet, anyone can launch a podcast* Product leverage is how fortunes will be made in the digital age – using things like code or media* Ex. of people who utilized code-based product leverage – Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Sergey Brin* Ex. of media-based product leverage – Joe Rogan, PewDiePie* Combining labor leverage, capital leverage, and product leverage is a magic combination for tech startups (for more on labor and capital leverage, check out these Podcast Notes)* You use the minimum, highest output labor – engineers and product developers* You add capital which you can use for marketing, advertising, and scaling* You then add lots of code, media, and content to get everything out there* Product and media leverage are permisionless – they don't require someone else's permission for you to use them or succeed* For labor leverage – someone has to decide to follow you* For capital leverage – someone has to give you money* But coding, writing tweets, making podcasts, YouTubing – these are permissionless* The robot revolution has already arrived – we just keep them in data centers/servers* Think – every great software developer has an army of robots working for him/her at night, while they sleep, after they've written the code and they're just cranking away* Robots do web searching for you* Robots handle customer service inquiries* Over time, this will progress to autonomous vehicles/planes/trucks* Coding is a superpower because it allows you to speak the language of the robots and tell them what to doProduct Leverage is Egalitarian in its Outputs (Listen) | Episode 22* Product (both code-based and media-based) leverage is egalitarian in its outputs* Compare this to labor and capital leverage – which are much less egalitarian* In general – the more of a human element there is in providing a service, the less egalitarian it is* “It's the nature of code and media output that the same product is accessible to everybody…The best products tend to be at the center, at the sweet spot of the middle class, rather than being targeted to the upper class.” – Naval Ravikant* For example:* Things like Netflix and Facebook – everybody can use* Compare this to Rolex watches or a Lamborghini – using/owning them is much more related to status-seeking* As the forms of leverage have gone from being labor-based and capital-based to being more product/code/media-based – “Most of the goods and services that we consume are becoming much more egalitarian in their consumption”* Things like food – rich people don't eat better food* Technology and media products have amazing scale economies* “If you care about ethics in wealth creation, it's better to create your wealth using code and media as leverage. Then those products are equally available to everybody as opposed to trying to create your wealth through labor or capital.” – Naval Ravikant* “If you're wealthy today, for large classes of things, you tend to spend your money on signaling goods to show other people that you are wealthy, and you try and convert them to status as opposed to actually consuming the goods for their own sake” – Naval RavikantBusiness Models Have Their Own Leverage (Listen) | Episode 23* Some business models give you “free leverage” – Examples:* Scale economies = the more you produce of something, the cheaper it gets to make* Technology and media products have this great quality where they have zero marginal cost of reproduction* Thinks like podcasts and YouTube videos* Ex. – Joe Rogan is working no harder now than he was on podcast #1, but it's now generating millions more* Then there are network effects businesses* A network effect is when each additional user adds value to the existing user base* Like language – The language becomes more valuable the more people who speak it* “Long-term, the entire world is probably going to end up speaking English and Chinese” – Naval Ravikant* It's thought that the value of a network is proportional to the square of the number of nodes of the network* A network of size 10 would have a value of 100, while a network of size 100 would have a value of 10,000* “You want to be in a network effects business” – Naval Ravikant* Things like Facebook, Uber, Twitter, YouTube, Google* “You should always be thinking about how your users or customers can add value to each other because that is the ultimate form of leverage” – Naval Ravikant* When you're picking a business model, aim to pick one where you can benefit from network effects, low marginal costs, and scale economiesAn Example: From Laborer to Real Estate Tech Company (Listen) | Episode 24* An example from the real estate business* A day laborer on a construction site, unless you're in a skilled trade, doesn't have specific knowledge* Even if you're a carpenter or electrician, other people can be trained to do your job – you can probably be replaced* You don't have much accountability – “You're a faceless cog in the construction crew”* They don't have much, if any, leverage* A general contractor, who someone hires to come and fix/repair their house, has a little more accountability* They'll make more money than a day laborer, but they take more risk (if the project runs over budget, they'll eat the loss)* The accountability gives them more potential income* They have labor leverage (people working for them)* A property developer is one level above a general contractor – these are people who go around looking for beaten-down properties which have potential and then buy them to fix them up* They can make a healthy profit by selling a building for 2-3x what they bought it for* A developer has more accountability/risk and much more specific knowledge* They have to know which neighborhoods are worth buying in, which lots are good/bad, and what makes/breaks a specific property* They have capital leverage and labor leverage* Beyond the property developer might be a famous architect/developer where just having your name on a property increases its value* Above that might be a property developer who builds entire communities* Above that – someone who funds real estate through an investment trust* Beyond that – someone (or a team of people) who understands the real estate market and the tech business (how to code/recruit developers/build a good product), and knows how to raise money from VCs* Think – something like Zillow* This team/individual would have all forms of leverage – labor (people working for him/her), code, capital (money from investors)* As you climb the chain – You layer in more knowledge which can only be gained on the job, more accountability/risk-taking, more capital, and more laborJudgment Is the Decisive Skill in an Age of Infinite Leverage (Listen) | Episode 25* First aim to get leverage, and once you have leverage – your judgment becomes the most important skill* How do you get leverage?* Get it permisionlessly – learn to code, create podcasts, become a good writer* Through permission – get people to work for you, or raise capital* “All the great fortunes are created through leverage” – Naval Ravikant* In high leverage positions (like a CEO), most of the time you're paid based on your judgment ability* Definitions:* Wisdom is knowing the long-term consequences of your actions* Judgment is wisdom on a personal domain (wisdom applied to external problems)* True judgment ability comes from experience* “Intellect without any experience is often worse than useless” – Naval Ravikant* You get the confidence that intellect gives you along with some credibility, but because you had no skin in the game and no real experience….”you're just throwing darts”* The people with the best judgment are actually among the least emotional* “The thing that prevents you from seeing what's actually happening are your emotions; our emotions are constantly clouding our judgment” – Naval Ravikant* Let's sum up:* First, you're accountable for your judgment* Judgment is the exercise of wisdom* Wisdom comes from experience* That experience can be accelerated through short iterations* “Investment books are sort of the worst place to learn about investment”* To get good at investing, you need broad-based judgment and thinking – the best way to obtain this is to study everything (including a lot of philosophy)* Philosophy makes you more stoic/less emotional and more likely to make better decisions (so you have better judgment)* The more outraged somebody gets, the worse their judgment probably is* “If someone's constantly tweeting political outrage and seems like an angry person, you don't want to hand them the keys to your car let alone the keys to your company”Set and Enforce an Aspirational Hourly Rate (Listen) | Episode 26* “No one is going to value you more than you value yourself” – Naval Ravikant* So set a high personal hourly rate and stick to it* Always factor your time into any decision (as well as your personal hourly rate)* So if your personal hourly rate is $60, and you estimate it will take you an hour and a half to return a $40 product, it's not worth it* You have a finite amount of high-output mental hours each day – “Do you want to use them to run errands and solve little problems or do you want to save them for the big stuff?”* “You can spend your life however you want, but if you want to get rich, it has to be your number one overwhelming desire” – Naval Ravikant* This means it has to come before ANYTHING else* Advice – Look forward to the future and set an aspirational hourly rate* Way back, Naval's aspirational hourly rate was $5,000/hour (even though he was only making a fraction of this at the time)* Today, Naval estimates he's actually beaten his goal* “It should seem and feel absurdly high. If it doesn't, it's not high enough.” – Naval Ravikant* If you can outsource something for less than your hourly rate, outsource it* Even for things like cooking* Paul Graham has said (directed to Y Combinator startups):* “You should be working on your product, getting product-market fit, exercising, and eating healthy. That's it. That's kind of all you have time for while you're on this mission.”Work as Hard as You Can (Listen) | Episode 27* “If getting wealthy is your goal, you're going to have to work as hard as you can” – Naval Ravikant* BUT – “Hard work is absolutely no substitute for who you work with and what you work on”* The hierarchy of importance:* “What you work on is probably the most important thing” – Naval Ravikant* AKA Product-Market-Founder fit (how well you personally are suited to a business”* Next – Picking the right people to work with* Third – How hard you work* But – they're like 3 legs of a stool, if you shortchange any one of them the whole stool is gonna fall down* The order of operations when building a business/career:* First – Figure out what you should be doing* Is there a market that's emerging that you're interested in?* Is there a product you could build which would fall in line with your specific knowledge?* Second – Surround yourself with the best people possible* “No matter how high your bar is, raise your bar” – Naval Ravikant* “You can never be working with other people who are great enough. If there's someone greater out there to work with, you should go work with them.” – Naval Ravikant* A good tip on deciding which startup to work for – Pick the one that will have the best alumni network for you in the future* Third – Work as hard as you can (AFTER you've picked the right thing to work on and the right people to work with)* “Nobody really works 80-120 hours a week sustainably at high-output with mental clarity” – Naval Ravikant* Knowledge workers tend to sprint while they're working on something that they're inspired/passionate about and then they rest* Sprint —> Rest —> Re-asses —> Try Again* (You end up building a marathon of sprints)* Inspiration is perishable* When you have the inspiration, act on it right then and there – otherwise you probably won't do it* Be impatient with actions and patient with results* “If I have a problem that I discover in one of my businesses that needs to be solved, I basically won't sleep until the resolution is in motion” – Naval RavikantBe Too Busy to “Do Coffee” (Listen) | Episode 28* Naval once tweeted – “You should be too busy to do coffee while keeping an uncluttered calendar”* The ONLY way to stay focused and be able to do the most high-impact work/what you're most inspired about is to constantly, RUTHLESSLY, decline meetings* It's fine to make connections and “do coffee” early in your career when you're exploring* But later in your career when you're exploiting – “You have to ruthlessly cut meetings out of your life”* If someone wants to have a meeting, suggest a phone call* If they want a phone call, suggest an email* When you do have meetings, make it a walking meeting (or a standing meeting), keep them short, and keep them small* “Any meeting with 8 people in it sitting around a conference table – nothing is getting done in that meeting, you're literally just dying one hour at a time” – Naval Ravikant* When you've done something important or valuable, busy people will meet with you* Suggest – “Hey, here's what I've done. Here's what I can show you. Let's meet and I'll be respectful of your time if this is useful to you.”* You HAVE to come with a proper calling card* “Product progress is the resume for the entrepreneur” – Naval Ravikant* You NEED proof of work to get a meeting with a busy person* “A busy calendar and a busy mind will destroy your ability to do great things in this world” – Naval Ravikant* If you want to be able to do great things you need free time and you need a free mind.Keep Redefining What You Do (Listen) | Episode 29* Naval tweeted – “Become the best in the world at what you do. Keep redefining what you do until this is true.”* “If you really want to get paid in this world, you want to be number one at whatever it is you're doing” – Naval Ravikant* Some of the most successful people in the world get paid for just being “them”* Oprah, Joe Rogan, etc. – they're being authentic to themselves* But – keep changing what you do until you're number one* It should be something that aligns with your specific knowledge, skill sets, interest, and capabilities* You should be thinking:* “I want to be the best at what I do”* “What I do is flexible, so that I'm the best at it”* (It's not an overnight discovery, it's a long journey)* A company should search for product-market fit* An entrepreneur should search for founder-product-market fitEscape Competition Through Authenticity (Listen) | Episode 30* Humans are highly memetic creatures – we tend to copy what everybody else is doing, including our desires* Very often, you get trapped in the wrong game because you're competing* The best way to escape competition is to just be authentic to yourself* If you're building and marketing something which is an extension of who you are, no one can compete with you on that* Think – It's near IMPOSSIBLE to compete with someone like Joe Rogan or Scott Adams* This is easiest to see in art, but even entrepreneurs are authentic (the businesses and product they create should be authentic to their desires and means)* “Authenticity naturally gets you away from competition” – Naval Ravikant* In entrepreneurship, the masses are never right* “If the masses knew how to build great things and create great wealth we'd all already be done. We'd all already be rich by now.” – Naval Ravikant* “Generally, most people will make the mistake of paying too much attention to the competition and being too much like the competition and not being authentic enough” – Naval Ravikant* The great founders tend to be authentic iconoclasts* As Robert Frost said – “Combine your vocation and your avocation” (what you love to do and what you do)* Long term, if you're good and successful at what you do, you'll find you're pretty much doing your hobbies for a living* “Ideally you want to end up specializing in being you” – Naval RavikantPlay Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes (Listen) | Episode 31* When you're being authentic, competition matters a whole lot less* Silicon Valley tech industry businesses tend to be winner take all* When you see competition, this can make you fly into a rage* You're often 1 step away from a completely different business, and sometimes you need to take that one step* But you won't be able to take it if you're fighting over a booby prize (aka playing a stupid game), blinded by competition* A personal example from Naval:* He was running Epinions (an online product review site independent of Amazon) a while back…* The space eventually turned into Trip Advisor and Yelp* “This is where we should have gone. We should have done more local reviews. There's more value to having a review for a scarce item (like a local restaurant) than some camera which might have 1,000 reviews on Amazon. But before we could get there, we got caught up in the whole comparison shopping game.” – Naval Ravikant* The whole space went to 0 as Amazon ended up winning the online retail game* “We should have been looking at what the consumer really wanted, and stayed authentic to ourselves – which is reviews, not price comparison” – Naval Ravikant* “We should have gone more and more into esoteric items that needed to be reviewed where customers had less and less data and wanted reviews more badly”* “If we stayed authentic to ourselves, we would have done better” – Naval RavikantEventually, You Will Get What You Deserve (Listen) | Episode 32* Naval tweeted – “Apply specific knowledge with leverage and eventually you'll get what you deserve”* (You could also add to that, apply: judgment or accountability)* Results take TIME* “If you're counting, you'll run out of patience before it actually arrives” – Naval Ravikant* Everybody wants results immediately, but you have to put in the hours* Put yourself in a good position with the specific knowledge, the accountability, the leverage, and your authentic skill set which allows you to be the best in the world at what you do (but you have to enjoy it)* Then just keep doing it, doing it, and doing it, and don't keep track, and don't keep count* “On a long enough time scale, you do get paid, but it can easily be 10 or 20 years” – Naval Ravikant* In entrepreneurship, you just have to be right ONCE* And the good news is you can take as many shots on goal as you want (usually every 3-5 years, 10 at the slowest)* Nivi has an equation:* Your eventual outcome = (the distinctiveness of your specific knowledge) x (how much leverage you apply) x (how often your judgment is correct) x (how accountable you are for the outcome) x (how much society values what you're doing) x (how long you can keep doing it) x (your improvement rate with learning and reading)* But the thing that matters most – find something you're good at that the market values* If you're good at it – you'll keep it up, develop the judgment, and eventually take on accountability (all the other variables fall into place)* “Product-market fit is inevitable if you're doing something you love to do and the market wants it” – Naval RavikantReject Most Advice (Listen) | Episode 33* “Avoid people who got rich quickly, they're just giving you their winning lottery ticket numbers” – Naval Ravikant* “The best founders I know listen to and read EVERYONE, but then they ignore everyone and make up their own mind” – Naval Ravikant* They have their OWN internal model of how to apply things to their situation and don't hesitate to discard information if necessary* Remember – “If you survey enough people, all the advice will cancel to 0”* When you hear a piece of advice/information, ask yourself:* “Is this true?”* “Is this true outside of the context of what that person applied it in?”* “Is it true in my context?”* “Do I want to apply it?”* Reject most advice, but remember you have to listen to/read enough of it to know what to reject and what to accept* Here's how Naval views the purpose of advice:* “I view it as helping me have anecdotes and maxims that I can then later recall when I have my own direct experience and say, ‘Ah, that's what that person meant.'” – Naval Ravikant* “90% of my tweets are just maxims that I carve for myself that are then mental hooks to remind me when I'm in that situation again” – Naval Ravikant* Like Naval's tweet – “If you can't see yourself looking with someone for life, then don't work with them for a day”Read the Full Notes at Podcast Notes Thank you for subscribing.

Get more notes at https://podcastnotes.org This podcast consists of a conversation between Naval Ravikant and Babak Nivi going over Naval's famous How to Get Rich tweetstorm.Key Takeaways* Wealth buys you freedom* EVERYONE can be rich* Aim to become so good at something, that luck eventually finds you* Over time, it isn't luck – it's destiny* You're not going to get rich renting out your time* Aim to have a job, career, or profession where your inputs don't match your outputs* People who are living far below their means enjoy a freedom that people busy upgrading their lifestyle just can't fathom* Get rich by giving society what it doesn't yet know how to get – at scale* The internet has massively broadened the space of possible careers* Whatever nice obsession you have, the internet allows you to scale it* Escape competition through authenticity* All the benefits in life come from compound interest* Whether it's in relationships, life, your career, health, or learning* Pick people to work with who have high intelligence, high energy, and high integrity – you CANNOT compromise on this* Really successful people have an action bias* Arm yourself with specific knowledge* Specific knowledge is the stuff that feels like play to you but looks like work to others. It's found by pursuing your innate talents, your genuine curiosity, and your passion.* Learning to build AND sell products is a superpower* Read what you love until you love to read* The 5 most important skills are reading, writing, arithmetic, persuasion, and computer programming* The number of iterations drives the learning curve* Get comfortable with frequent, small failures* If you're willing to bleed a little bit every day, but in exchange, you win big later, you'll be better off* Embrace accountability and take business risks under your own name. Society will reward you with responsibility, equity, and leverage* Product leverage is how fortunes will be made in the digital age – using things like code or media* Product and media leverage are permisionless – they don't require someone else's permission for you to use them or succeed* Wisdom is knowing the long-term consequences of your actions* Judgment is wisdom on a personal domain (wisdom applied to external problems)* The people with the best judgment are actually among the least emotional* Set and enforce an aspirational hourly rate* If you can outsource something for less than your hourly rate, outsource it* The hierarchy of importance:* What you work on* Picking the right people to work with* How hard you work* A busy calendar and a busy mind will destroy your ability to do great things in this world* Become the best in the world at what you do. Keep redefining what you do until this is true.* Reject most advice, but remember you have to listen to/read enough of it to know what to reject and what to accept* Your physical health, your mental health, and your relationships will most likely bring you more peace and happiness than any amount of money ever will* Productize yourself* Create a product out of whatever it is you do naturally and uniquely well* Being honest leaves you with a clear mind* “A lot of wisdom is just realizing the long-term consequences of your actions. The longer-term you're willing to look, the wiser you're going to seem to everybody around you.” – Naval Ravikant* Negotiations are won by whoever cares lessBooks Mentioned* Warren Buffet once went to Benjamin Graham, author of The Intelligent Investor, and offered to work for him for free so he could learn about investing* It's important that you read foundational things (the original books in a given field which are scientific in nature)* Instead of reading a random business book, read The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith* Instead of reading a recent book on biology or evolution, read Darwin's On The Origin of Species* Instead of reading a recent biotech book, read The Eighth Day of Creation* Another recommendation – Richard Feynman's Six Easy Pieces* Naval highly recommends Skin in the Game by Nassim Taleb* When Naval was younger, one of his favorite books was How to Get Rich by Felix Dennis* To learn more about randomness, check out the highly recommended book – Fooled By Randomness by Nassim Taleb* The Almanac of Naval RavikantSeek Wealth, Not Money or Status (Listen) | Episode 1* Having wealth means having assets that earn while you sleep* “The reason you want wealth is because it buys you freedom, so you don't have to wear a tie like a collar around your neck, so you don't have to wake up at 7 AM and rush to work in traffic, so you don't have to waste away your entire life grinding all your productive hours away to a soulless job that doesn't fulfill you.” – Naval Ravikant* Money is how we transfer wealth* “Money won't solve all your problems, but it will solve all your money problems” – Naval Ravikant* Wealth is a positive-sum game and status is a zero-sum gameEthical Wealth Creation Makes Abundance for the World (Listen) | Episode 2* “What I am basically focused on is true wealth creation. It's not about taking money. It's not about taking something from somebody else. But it's from creating abundance.” – Naval Ravikant* Basically all of the wealth society has today was created – we're not still sitting around in caves figuring out how to divide pieces of firewood* “Everyone can be rich” – Naval Ravikant* In the First World, everyone is basically richer than almost anyone who was alive 200 years ago* Furthermore, it's better to be poor today than it was to be the richest man 200 years ago* Here's a thought experiment…* Imagine if every human had the knowledge of a good software engineer – just think what society would look like 20 years from now* We'd ALL be living in massive abundanceFree Markets Are Intrinsic to the Human Species (Listen) | Episode 3* Capitalism is innate to the human species in every exchange we have* When two people are talking – there's an information exchange* “The notion of exchange and keeping track of credits and debits – this is built into us as flexible social animals” – Naval Ravikant* Humans are the only animals in the animal kingdom that cooperate across genetic boundaries* Most animals don't even cooperate – those that do cooperate only in packs or when they have some shared interest* What lets humans cooperate?* Keeping track of credits and debts – that's free-market capitalism* “Everybody can be wealthy, everybody can be retired, everybody can be successful” – Naval Ravikant* It just comes down to education and desire* “If you get too many takers and not enough makers, society falls apart” – Naval Ravikant* This results in a communist country* Ex. – VenezuelaGet the FULL NOTES at Podcastnotes.org.

How to Buy Healthy Eggs In the grocers, look for eggs labeled PASTURE-RAISED, such as Vital Farms. Pastured hens live outdoors in movable coops. In a Farmer's Market, ask the seller "what do you feed these chickens?" Eggs that are colored, speckled or slightly dirty don't mean the birds were pastured. They may have been raised in a fenced dirt area with no access to bugs or forage. Eating GMO corn and soy - not a natural diet for birds. Pastured chickens' natural diet is bugs, green plants and seeds. When insects and seeds decline in the winter, they need a grain mix in addition to most any food products from the farm. Chickens are NOT vegetarians. Subscribe to the Newsletter Liberate meal time w. my FREE eBook!

I said on the previous episode that it was for Bitcoin but I want to be clear that it was being used for Ethereum mixing. Essentially the system worked using smart contracts to send and receive ethereum. When you deposit your funds, it issues a receipt to withdraw the same amount. It breaks the chain of ownership or anonymize your funds by breaking the connection to the original wallet. So because the US Treasury has sanctioned the use of Tornado Cash then anyone who has received any ethereum could be sanctioned. But Tornado Cash is still functioning because it runs on the block-chain and is accessible via IPFS network. IPFS is a peer-to-peer (p2p) storage network. Content is accessible through peers located anywhere in the world, that might relay information, store it, or do both. IPFS knows how to find what you ask for using its content address rather than its location. These three principles build upon each other to enable the IPFS ecosystem. Let's start with content addressing and the unique identification of content.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about coaching and confidentiality.Find the Full Notes to this episode at RecoveringCorpoholics.com/40.Did you ever want to work with a coach but then think, I don't want my business getting out there?! This is especially true if your employer is paying for the coaching. Since coaches are not bound by a medical board and that anyone can claim to be a coach these days (AKA why it's so important to work with qualified coaches these days!), it can be hard to let your guard down and trust that what you say will be confidential. But I am here to tell you that is just not the case. I want to assure you that when you work with a professional coach, especially a coach who is accredited through the ICF or the CCE, whatever you say is 100% confidential. It is actually our duty as a coach to not disclose any confidential information you tell us during the course of our sessions, unless we have your permission. There is only one circumstance where confidential information may be shared without your permission is if you were to say something that puts your life at risk. Now there are other times where confidential information may be shared, however, we must have your permission to do so. For example, if you are sitting for your ICF coaching credentials, sometimes you are required to submit a coaching session recording. This shows to the coaching accreditation board that you have the skills to coach.But a coach would never record you without your permission! Otherwise, they violate the coaching code of ethics.I would ask in advance if it would be OK to record a future session. And if you are comfortable doing so, I would state at the beginning of the recording the date, the purpose of the recording and who it will be shared with (a coaching board that will keep the recording confidential).This is just one example but I want to assure you that you are in the driver's seat with your information. You can say no to anything! That is why it is so important to discuss this prior to starting your coaching relationship. When you begin your relationship with a coach, confidentiality is a topic that will always be brought up by your coach and discussed… if you are a good coach that is, again that's why it is so important to work with a trained and certified coach.  Discuss this with your coach. Look at your contract (and there should always be a contract) and see what it states.Maybe the contract states information may be shared for training purposes only, maybe it states that only your name will be shared for hourly tracking purposes (that is for credentialing), but, whatever the case may be, just ensure you know!This is especially important when working with a coach hired by your employer. Just know what information can be shared. And when you are unclear about anything, don't like what you see and / or If you don't see anything on confidentiality on the contract (which is a red flag in my opinion), ask your questions, have it added!  Do whatever you need to do to make yourself comfortable.Go to RecoveringCorpoholics.com/40 to see some standard contract language you can ask your coach to add.Coaches are professionals and our only goal is to help you achieve your goals. I do this work full time and take my job very seriously and I would never compromise my relationships with my clients. And every other professional coach should think the same. Your information belongs to you and you alone and I will always protect that.....FIND THE FULL SHOW NOTES + EXAMPLE CONFIDENTIALITY CONTRACT LANGUAGE HERE.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about goal planning.Find the Full Notes to this episode at RecoveringCorpoholics.com/39.This episode is all about goal planning. Because if you don't have a plan, you don't have a goal, you have a wish. And if you don't know where you are going, you will end up someplace else! You may have a goal in mind but if you don't have a plan in place to achieve that goal, and I'm talking about all the steps and everything you need to do to achieve that goal, then you may not reach it. Let's take a second to be real with ourselves. I mean, Just think about 2020. That was an unprecedented year that no one expected. We may have started out with goals but with everything that happened that year, your goals may have taken a hit. Instead of being strategic about your time, we all turned on our survival modes and had to deal with things we never had to deal with before. I know that was totally unexpected but so is life. Having a child sick, you getting sick, having more work to do, dealing with daily life... I mean things happen! We get busy. Moral of the story, if we want to achieve our goals, we need to be strategic in our actions and take control of our future. Aka have a plan!Without goals, we can drift from one thing to another resulting in a feeling that time has been wasted on things that are irrelevant, irresponsible or just  unimportant. Having goals, we get to choose the direction of our lives and create our future. Goal setting gives us something to look forward to. I don't know about you but I get excited when I have things I want to achieve.One thing that I especially love about goal setting is that it triggers new behaviors or habits, helping guide our focus and helping us sustain that momentum in life. I think the most important thing to note here is that the process of working on our goals makes us happy. We are for sure happy when we achieve our goal, but it's the pride in ourselves that we actually did something we committed to that lights us up. Just take a moment and think back to a time where you wanted to do something and you actually did it. How did you feel? Amazing right?! Well I want you to feel that again because that's exactly what we're doing this week!OK so let's get into it!Now that you have your goal down and it is SMART and gives you a SPARK, I want to show you the process of planning your goals. First, take your top goal you identified and set a date for how long it's going to take you to achieve.  Maybe it's to lose 20 pounds so you decide you want it to take 6 months.Second, I want you to break that down by monthly milestones. For example, if your goal is to lose 20 pounds in 6 months, how much do you need to lose each month to lose 20 pounds? Around 3-4 pounds. Then for each month, write down what it would take or look like to lose 3-4 pounds. That's a pound a week! What do you need to eat each week, what exercises do you need to do? Take all the guesswork out!You can even be extra and write down what you will eat each day and when you will work out. That will for sure set you up for success. And the same goes for a life goal. Say you want to write a book and you say it will take you one year. OK, well, where do you need to be at 9 months, 6 months, 3 months, etc., in order to complete your goal? Now it depends on how you want to break it out. Maybe the goal is to write a chapter per month. Then what do you need to do each week in order to complete that chapter?Maybe it's to have the book completed by 6 months and then have it edited by 9 months so it is finalized by month 12. Whatever the case may be, take your goal and figure out how long it will take and t

In today's episode, we're going to talk about How to Develop Goals You'll Actually Want to Achieve.Find the Full Notes to this episode at RecoveringCorpoholics.com/38.There are all things that we want to achieve in this life. However, sometimes, we just aren't clear with what that is, we get stopped along the way or sometimes we actually don't want that goal even though we may think that we do.But what if there was a way to set goals that we actually wanted to achieve so we were more motivated to get to the finish line?Let's get into it.A Goal is a desired result that one plans and commits to achieve. Now a lot of you may know this, but if you want to be truly successful in achieving your goals, you need to be very clear on what your goals are. Here is the criteria your goals should meet:First, your Goals should be Outcome focusedWhat is it that you really want to achieve? And that outcome should make you feel excited!  If you have a goal you are excited about, I promise you that you're 90% of the way there.Second, Goals should also be In line with your WHY and your valuesThe more a goal aligns with your inner or core values - the EASIER it will be to achieve. The more your goal will Drive you! This way, if you get wrapped up in the day/week, your goal is something you love and want to do. It will be easier to keep going or pick back up.  Note: You can achieve goals that don't align with your values/your WHY but it's usually harder and less satisfying. For example, your job may require you to take some accreditation test. If you're not crazy about your job, you may not have the same passion and excitement to keep your momentum to study going. It may feel more like a chore. But think now that you have to take a test to be the best in your field, a field where you are so passionate about, how do you feel about studying now? Challenged? Excited? Third, Goals should be stated in the positiveInstead of saying: “I want to stop snacking”, say “I want to eat healthy”Instead of saying: “I want to quit smoking”, say “I want to be healthy, be able to breathe and live a long life”. Instead of saying: “I want to quit my crappy job”, say “I want to be in a career that I can impact millions, that I am passionate about, that I am recognized for”. See the difference? —-----Fourth, your Goals should be SMARTI'm sure you've heard this so many times so I will just briefly go into this.SMART Stands for.....FIND THE FULL SHOW NOTES HERE.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about 3 reasons why you're not achieving your goals. Find the Full Notes to this episode at RecoveringCorpoholics.com/37.If you're ready to achieve big things but are having trouble finding the time to do so, you're not alone. According to Forbes, when asking Leaders if they successfully completed their goals for the day, the majority of them responded with “I have no idea”. (I believe) There are three main obstacles that keep us from achieving our goals. First, that we aren't clear or are realistic on what your goals actually are. Second, that we just can't find the time to work on them (there's just so many fire drills these days!). And third, that we actually have too many goals (and we don't know where to focus). So how do we solve those three obstacles so you can start achieving your goals today?Keep Listening. You aren't clear / realistic on what your goals areThe first obstacle I want to talk about is not being clear or realistic about what your goals actually are. Sometimes we have no idea what we want to achieve, we just have things we want to do (aka we are not clear on what we want).  For example, I have the goal to record an episode of my podcast each week. However, that is not a goal. That is an action step for a goal. The goal here would be to gain more attention, become a thought leader, use it to later write a book, etc. But I didn't put that together until one day I stepped back and thought to myself, why am I taking up so much of my time for my podcast. I'm not someone famous and don't have a big following so is it even worth my time?And when I had a lot of things to do, I would choose doing that vs my podcast. But now I am clear on what I am trying to do! I want to use this for my clients and eventually put it together for a book. And now I make time for my podcast!And for being realistic, I believe you should dream big, for more info on that, go listen to episode 26. But you also need to be realistic with how big your goal is and how much time you have to achieve it. Saying you want to win a fitness competition in a month when you haven't worked out in years may not be the best. But 3, 6 months or a year, that's definitely doable! Set yourself up for success.So to avoid this obstacle, here are some of the other things you can do:For every goal or dream you have, ask yourself: “Why do I want to achieve this”?And if you don't know, start thinking of the big win you want to achieve for that year. Think about why that is important to you and how it's going to benefit you? On the opposite spectrum, you can also think of what the risk is for not achieving your goal. And don't skip this! I know there is a lot to get done and you want (and like) to get stuff done. But being clear on what you're trying to achieve is going to make you feel way more accomplished than if you didn't. You can't find the time to work on them The second obstacle on why you're not achieving your goals is that you just can't seem to find the time to work on them. Life is crazy these days and there is so much to do. From all the things we need to get done at home to work to everything in between, we can be spread thin. FIND THE FULL SHOW NOTES HERE.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about why there is nothing wrong with you!Find the Full Notes to this episode at RecoveringCorpoholics.com/32.Feeling stuck in your job is not an easy feeling. Especially when you have no idea what you want to do next. Even if you do have an idea, it's not easy to switch when your friends and family think you're crazy for leaving a good career behind. This is also true for the people that have multiple passions and want to explore them all and for the people who knew exactly what they wanted and don't anymore. So what ends up happening is we start to question ourselves. We can't help but think “why can't I be happy or content like them (or my coworkers)”. And then we start to doubt ourselves and think: “will switching really make me happy” or “will I ever be happy”.And thinking this way leads you to believe that something is wrong with you. That you will never figure it out, that if you do, you won't succeed (for numerous reasons such as you don't have the skills, the experience, the attention span, etc.) and you're going to be kicking yourself for leaving in the first place. But let me stop you right there and tell you NOTHING IS WRONG WITH YOU!If anything, something is wrong with THEM! You are meant for more and you want your life to be filled with meaning, with passion and to me, that is a life to be lived. You are an exceptional human being with so much potential and interest, and people like you change the world.In reality, there is nothing wrong with either side. It just is that we are all different, we all have different wants and needs and live different lives, no matter how similar we both seem.Who cares if you want to change careers to do something you're passionate about. Who cares if you have to switch jobs multiple times until you find something you love. Who should care anything about your career, other than you?People used to think that you should stay in one job, that women shouldn't work, that learning disorders were actually people who were lazy, but times have changed. People have stood up to these silly presumptions and have changed the world.Changing misunderstandings starts with you. Be the change you want to see. Your life is too valuable to settle for anything less. And the more people that go out and do this, the more life will be better for those to come. The working world is starting to see a shift toward meaningful careers and it is an amazing time to be in the workforce. You don't have to stay in one job. You may have loved something one time, but just like how we change, so do our passions, job interests and therefore, careers!You are more than qualified to do what you love. You are more skilled than most people out there. You just have to start believing it.Maybe you don't have the exact skills just yet, but if you have the desire to do something, that is worth more than any skill. I know I would hire someone who is willing to go the extra mile anyday over someone who has the skills but no desire. So stop hiding your talents, stop not believing in yourself and just start doing what you love today......FIND THE FULL SHOW NOTES HERE.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about how to use music to motivate yourselfFind the Full Notes to this episode at RecoveringCorpoholics.com/31.Feeling down at your job, discouraged about your job search or just feeling downright unmotivated? One simple solution to lift your mood is to listen to music!Studies show that listening to music is like a workout for your brain. Not only does it ignite creativity, but it is a valuable tool for reducing stress, improving your mood and creating a more happy mindset. It's like a workout for your brain (as long as the music is upbeat and you like the music you're listening to). And a happier mindset brings more benefits beyond just feeling good. It can make you feel better about your job, give you the motivation to keep going in your job search and just downright feel good!I won't go further into the stats or studies of listening to music but if I were to give you any advice for this week, is to take the time and create a playlist of happy, encouraging music that you like so if you do feel down, you have your happy playlist to lift you back up!I know that if I feel stressed, anxious, or even nervous, I put on some happy jams, stand up and rock out. Even moving your body helps!  I know I do this before any interview or new client call. It just makes me feel ready to win!I put some of my favorite songs along with proven happy songs in the full show notes at RecoveringCorpoholics.com/31 so head over there now to check out that list now!Remember, my list of songs could not work for you - you have to find what makes you feel like getting up and dancing!That's all I have for this week so hit the play button and start jamming!Stay Inspired and Live Powerfully,FeliciaSongs I love to listen to...SEE HERE FOR THE FULL SHOW NOTES (& SONGS)

In today's episode, we're going to talk about how to search for a job when you have no idea what to search for.Find the Full Notes to this episode at RecoveringCorpoholics.com/30.As a full time employee, your time is valuable. You don't have time to waste applying for a bunch of jobs that you're only semi interested in, hoping they're better than where you're at. That's why it's so important to take the time to explore and research positions that you would actually want to do and use your time to apply for those jobs.However, how do you search for something when you have no idea what to search for?It may sound like an impossible task but trust me when I say it's easy. All you need to do is give yourself time and work backwards. As long as you have an idea in mind, you can use job sites, such as LinkedIn, to make specific searches to really drill down to find a career path that you'll love.Not sure how that works? Well listen in as I take you through the steps of how you can just search for a new career when you're not sure what you want to do next. Make a List of keywords The first thing you're going to want to do is to make a list of jobs, job responsibilities, interests, industries, company names and any other keywords that you can use to then search for jobs. Nowadays, most job sites allow you to be very specific in your job search, allowing you to search from almost anything you choose, such as company name, position, years of experience, salary, qualifications, education, and so much more.You can even filter on jobs to ensure only jobs that meet your needs come up. For example, you can search for marketing and then salary over $100k to ensure only those types of jobs come up.Now I do want to caution you here on filtering too much because you can leave a great job on the table (as I believe if you have the skills or desire, companies can be flexible on salary). In addition, the goal here is to explore. I have my MBA so when I filter on jobs with Master degrees, I get a lot of high level job openings, which is great. However, if I take education out, so many more jobs come up that I can explore from so I can really see what is out there. Plus, maybe you might have to take a step back, but then you want to think about what the job is after that. I know I had a client that had to take a slight pay cut but was going to be making more than she made now in just 2 years (doing what she loved). So again at this time, keep an open mind and explore!......SEE MORE AND FIND THE FULL SHOW NOTES HERE.

James 1, 1-6There are many Scholars, theologians, who disagree, with the authorship of James. In my research and studies, I conclude and agree with many that the author was James. The half-brother of Jesus was the Author.In his letter, he didn't address the church world as a whole, but he addressed the Twelve Tribes which are scattered abroad. Primarily speaking directly to the Jewish readership.In the same manner of today Pastors, and Called Leaders, must address those of the Faith, and the Blood bought Believers of our time, and bring to light The Foolishness that has drifted into our Faith. James wrote to the Jewish Believers, nailing them on how their Faithfulness to the Lord, had gotten lost in Political affiliation, and the church drifted into Foolishness, and was not Living the Word, but had become hears only. James cautioned them about 5 damaging factors to their Faith, and their failure to understand, temptation, and Godly suffering. James 1, 1,2, consider it Joy (when you fall). God takes no pleasure in you failing or your demise. This rejoicing is about making you better. This is the build-up of your resistance for a greater and better future against Temptation, trials, and testing. (When) denotes time in Scripture. (When) means we're going to be tested, and tried in life, but it's not to kill us, it's to make us better, for what God has for us.One of the things the devil always wants to attack, and Rob you of, is your Joy in Christ. Because when joy is gone the next thing set in is Blame.Full Notes

Sometimes as we drive down the road of life, we come to dangerous intersections.We refer to them as “forks in the road.”Perhaps you feel like you are at a dangerous intersection right now in your life. The Bible speaks about a divine resource we can utilize when we come to those intersections. It is called wisdom. There are many times when we will approach one of those intersections and we'll realize we have a shortage of wisdom.This is the very situation James addresses in 1:5-8. James had just finished speaking about the various trials we encounter in life. These are the difficulties and suffering that come our way. BIG IDEA: Life creates a demand for wisdom which God supplies when the conditions are met.What is wisdom? Wisdom and knowledge are both recurring themes in the Bible and are related to each other, they are not synonymous. The dictionary defines wisdom as “the ability to discern or judge what is true, right, or lasting.” Knowledge, on the other hand, is “information gained through experience, reasoning, or acquaintance.” Knowledge is what is gathered over time through study and experience.But it can be said that wisdom acts properly upon that knowledge - wisdom is the application of knowledge. True wisdom, according to Scripture, begins with God. Proverbs 9:10 tells us that the “fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” In Proverbs 1:7, we learn that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline. Proverbs tells us that fools hate wisdom. The fool is the person whose choices contradict God's truth.Full Notes

Last week, we started this series on the book of James. The church is its 2nd decade of existence, the Jews were scattered, so James writes a letter to the churches to give counsel and as a guide to help Jewish Christians navigate cultures with completely different norms and their beliefs than those that existed in Jerusalem. We shared about suffering, how that suffering exists and is the natural course of life since the fall of mankind but that suffering doesn't change the fact that God is good. Suffering exists but as God's children, He can use the trials of life to develop us into complete and mature Christians. That is why James starts his letter off with “consider it pure joy.” Remember, James was writing this letter to help navigate the Christian Jews on practical things of living as Christians in a world of different cultures and beliefs. This morning, I want us to look at a subject that James writes about concerning faith. Do you remember the devastating fires of Yellowstone National Park that burned out of control for months in 1988? Hundreds of thousands of acres were blackened and people across the US and around the world mourned the ruining of that beautiful national landmark.Scientists discovered that the fires of 1988 were the best thing that ever happened at Yellowstone. They discovered that one species of pine tree reproduces itself only when a fire's heat opens the pine cones, sending spores floating to the ground. Those adult trees, though killed by the fire, have brought forth a flourishing new crop. And this new food source allows the growth of larger herds of elk, bison, and moose. What seemed like a terrible loss three decades ago has brought new life to Yellowstone today!Full Notes

Let me ask you this morning, what would you have done? The church is in its 2nd decade of existence, the believing Jews have been dispersed because of persecution, and the central church seems to be in danger of losing its influence. So, what does James (the brother of Jesus) do? He writes a letter to the Jewish churches as a guide to help Jewish Christians navigate cultures with completely different norms and their beliefs than those that existed in Jerusalem. His writings apply in today's world where social norms and beliefs often differ from those of Christianity. During the 1st decade of the church, the church was mostly dominated by Jews who knew the Old Testament scripture and were still able to participate in the complex Jewish social structure. During the 2nd decade, many non-Jews (Gentiles) became believers beginning when Peter was on the rooftop and received a vision and Cornelius was told by an angel to go get Peter, and then later with Saul's conversion and Saul (Paul) being sent to the Gentiles during his missionary travels. James probably stayed in Jerusalem instead of doing much traveling. So, James writes a letter to the Jews living outside Jerusalem (James 1:1) to establish the Jews in applicable truth and conduct and to encourage them in their journey of faith.Full Notes

Luke 4:18: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free,”KJV “18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, Today is known as Independence Day in the United States. It is the day that we celebrate America's freedom from the tyranny of England under King George the III. The signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, was not intended to declare war with England. Mark Parsec says the intended purpose of the Declaration of Independence for the colonists was to declare “to the world their belief in a personal, infinite God - their Creator - who endowed them with certain ‘inalienable' or absolute rights . . . To the men of that time, it was self-evident - that if the inalienable rights they were urging were not seen in the context of the authority of God, then they were without content - illusions, and nothing but dreams. To have absolute rights our forefathers had to acknowledge the Absolute Authority of God.”You see, there is no true freedom without God and His authority to determine the morality upon which the laws of our land are founded. In God we find the basis for national freedom; however, we also find in God the basis for our spiritual freedom. God's provision for our spiritual freedom is found in His one and only Son, Jesus Christ. This morning, on this Independence Day Sunday we are going to view the freedom we have in Christ.Full Notes

BUILDING HEALTHY ACCOUNTABILITY  When we are exhausted, our fuse from happy to pissed off can be one trigger away.  Building healthy accountability starts with each of us taking a long look in the mirror and acknowledges our own sin, toxicity, pain, unhealthiness.  As we become more self-aware we actually care more about those around us. We aren't just conscious of our own needs and desires, but we are more in touch with the needs of others. We grow in compassion, empathy, patience, & love. Full Notes, Challenge, Questions: https://focusflip.wordpress.com/
